This course
provides an opportunity for the advanced photography major who is interested in
pursuing a career in visual communication to deal with the skills, theory,
ethics and contemporary issues of newspaper and magazine photojournalism.
Students work collaboratively and individually on a quarter-long newsworthy
assignment that reflects a topic relevant to current issues in the community.
Students produce a complete portfolio based on the chosen topic and present the
work to the community in a final exhibition. Through the investigation and
visual exploration of a story pertinent to the local or regional community,
students are made more aware of the link between photojournalism, the media and
culture. Prerequisite(s): PHOT 324. Questions contact Rebecca Nolan, rnolan@scad.edu
